Chapter 183 - Threaten and Tempt (2/2)

Zhao Niaoniao was unable to reply. At this time, Shi Qingxue didn’t ask why but gave an answer beyond expectation. How would she continue?

“Your Highness, you are so kind. Even if I don’t deserve it, I can’t turn down your offer,” Shi Qingxue added leisurely and made Zhao Niaoniao shut up with her face turning pale, red and then black.

It was colorful.

After quite a while, Zhao Niaoniao managed to restrain her anger and laughed scornfully. “I don’t want to say something useless. I can meet one of your demands under the condition that you can’t pester Junyang.”

“A demand?” Shi Qingxue repeated with interest and felt it laughable and amazing. Zhao Niaoniao wanted to tempt her with private interests?

Zhao Niaoniao didn’t think her offer ridiculous but stressed solemnly, “Right, whatever demand is okay, as long as you promise not to see Junyang in the future.”

The condition was more strict as “not to pester” was replaced with “not to see” because Zhao Niaoniao had a strong feeling that Shi Qingxue was a threat to her.

In fact, they had met only twice and never talked with each other, but Zhao Niaoniao firmly believed that Mo Junyang treated this woman in a special way. She wouldn’t let such a dangerous and greedy woman get close to him. She thought Shi Qingxue was greedy as the latter showed an interest in her temptation.

Shi Qingxue almost laughed loud but controlled herself. Then she pretended to be serious and stated, “If any requirement is okay, I want the Zhao Country to become a kingdom of our country.”

Zhao Niaoniao was petrified and stared at Shi Qingxue blankly. “What did you say?”

Even though the princess from the Zhao Country had experienced a lot, she thought her ears were tingling as she was scared by the high price Shi Qingxue had asked.

Shi Qingxue smiled. “You heard me!”

Confusion was shown on Zhao Niaoniao’s face, and after a long time, she realized that Shi Qingxue messed her around and then became angry from shame. “Shi Qingxue, I am serious. Don’t intentionally bring up such an unrealistic offer to joke with me, okay?”

Shi Qingxue blinked innocently. “No. You said whatever demand is okay.”

Zhao Niaoniao was speechless.

Seeing that the princess was about to go crazy, Shi Qingxue made a gesture of submission and said on purpose, “Fine, I know that, with your ability, it’s difficult for you to do something like this. Then I will make it easier.”

Zhao Niaoniao’s face fell. “What?”

“Hmm, just give up your position as a princess,” Shi Qingxue replied leisurely.

The princess of the Zhao Country turned ghastly pale and pointed her trembling finger at Shi Qingxue. “Shi Qingxue, don’t push me too hard.”

“Gee? Did I push you? You said that…”

“Huh! You just mentioned something unrealistic and purposely made difficulties for me. Didn’t you bully me?” Zhao Niaoniao goggled in anxiety.

Shi Qingxue showed that she was innocent. “It’s fine that you can’t do the first thing. I just told you to give up your position as a princess, and you can make it after saying something. Why is it unrealistic?

“Just admit that you don’t want to give up your position as a princess, and I won’t put you in an awkward position! What a pity. If Junyang knows that he is not as important as a status to you, what will he think?”

“You!” Zhao Niaoniao was provoked and blushed with shame. She almost blurted, “I can give up my position as a princess” but controlled herself in the end.

Zhao Niaoniao had the awareness of this point.

She was clear that Mo Junyang didn’t love her. Even if he agreed to marry her, it must be because of her social status.

But she didn’t mind. She wanted to marry Junyang and would feel contented as long as she could help and own this man. While the status as a princess of the Zhao Country was her greatest advantage to make her the future King Rui’s wife. She wouldn’t give it up after Shi Qingxue provoked her with only a few words.

Zhao Niaoniao raised her chin arrogantly, even though she was not tall enough to look down at Shi Qingxue, and then expressed coldly, “Do you think that I have no idea about your intention? Don’t you just want to ruin the relationship between me and Junyang? But he is not here, and you are bound to fail.”

“Oh.” Shi Qingxue shrugged and didn’t care.

Anyway, she just felt bored and joked about this princess. Even if Zhao Niaoniao really agreed to give up her position as a princess, would she be not a princess of the Zhao Country?

That was impossible.

So it gave Shi Qingxue a chance to refuse Zhao Niaoniao openly. “Your Highness, since you can’t make it, please forgive me. I can’t do it, either.”

She couldn’t avoid seeing Mo Junyang or even give him up.

She had decided not to see Mo Junyang before she regained her memory, but when she could remember the past, she would still make it clear to him. She had never thought that she would lose her memory thoroughly, and she would be able to remember everything someday.

“Shi Qingxue, don’t decline my kind offer. You will suffer. I just don’t want to hurt you, but it doesn’t mean that I can’t do anything to you.” Zhao Niaoniao’s voice was cold.

She failed in tempting Shi Qingxue, so she threatened her.

Shi Qingxue wasn’t afraid but laughed. “I wonder what you are going to do to me, Your Highness.”
